Running can actually slim down your legs, so how can running help you slim down your legs?

Calf stretch to shape your legs

Stand up straight, step one leg back as far as possible, keep the sole of the shoe on the ground, keep the leg behind you straight, bend the front leg, and keep your body vertical. Pull your arms back as far as possible. Hold for 8-12 seconds, switch legs and do it again. Stand up straight, stretch one leg forward and keep it straight, bend the back leg, stretch your body slightly forward, and pull your arms in front of you. Hold for 8-12 seconds, switch legs and do it again. Stand up straight, lift one leg, grab the shoe with your hand, and try to get it close to your hips. Keep your hips balanced, knees together, and bend the upright leg slightly. If you have difficulty keeping your balance, you can hold on to the wall or chair. Hold for 8-12 seconds, switch legs and do it again.

Aerobic exercise burns fat

The time to really burn fat starts after 30 minutes of continuous exercise, so running needs to be sustained for more than half an hour. In addition to adopting the correct running posture, the weight loss method to avoid thickening of the calves is to adopt a low-intensity, rhythmic, and long-lasting aerobic exercise jogging, which consumes sugar and fat in the body. Don't be mistaken that the more intense the exercise, the better the weight loss effect. It is wrong to only focus on the calories consumed in each exercise. The jogging speed should not be too fast, and the heart rate should be controlled within the heart rate range of aerobic exercise. It should not be too slow, otherwise it will not play the role of exercise. Generally, jogging at 6-8km/hour is very suitable. Once the intensity is increased, the calories consumed will indeed increase, but it will cause too much burden on the calves and knees, and the muscles will grow faster.
